Statistical IssuesThis 2007 Article IV Consultation highlights that a modest recovery is finally under way in Portugal. Growth rose to 1.3 percent in 2006, led by strong external demand, which is driving a notable rebound in export growth. In response, corporate investment shows signs of strengthening, but overall domestic demand remains relatively weak. Real GDP growth is projected to strengthen to about 1.8 percent in 2007 and 2008. Portugal’s financial system remains sound and well supervised, and appears to have weathered the recent tensions in financial markets relatively well, though risks remain.IMF Staff Country Reports; Country Report ;No. 2007/341Exports and ImportsimfFinance: GeneralimfLaborimfMacroeconomicsimfPublic FinanceimfGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data)imfNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: GeneralimfDemand and Supply of Labor: GeneralimfFiscal PolicyimfDebtimfDebt ManagementimfSovereign DebtimfWages, Compensation, and Labor Costs: GeneralimfPublic finance & taxationimfLabourimfincome economicsimfFinanceimfInternational economicsimfCompetitionimfLabor marketsimfPublic debtimfFiscal stanceimfLabor costsimfFinancial marketsimfFiscal policyimfExpenditures, PublicimfLabor marketimfDebts, PublicimfPortugalEconomic conditions1974-PortugalEconomic policyPortugalimfExports and ImportsFinance: GeneralLaborMacroeconomicsPublic FinanceGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data)National Government Expenditures and Related Policies: GeneralDemand and Supply of Labor: GeneralFiscal PolicyDebtDebt ManagementSovereign DebtWages, Compensation, and Labor Costs: GeneralPublic finance & taxationLabourincome economicsFinanceInternational economicsCompetitionLabor marketsPublic debtFiscal stanceLabor costsFinancial marketsFiscal policyExpenditures, PublicLabor marketDebts, PublicInternational Monetary Fund.DcWaIMFBOOK9910788520503321Portugal304521UNINA
